Some of you, especially those of you who know me but can never remember my blog’s web address [Hey Mildred... I forget if it's Negative Thirty-Nine or if it's Sedative Ninety-Five?], get to my blog using SteveMooradian.com which I had set to redirect to Negative99. Well, this will still work, but alas, there is now an official SteveMooradian.com that is its own site. *cues the trumpets*
I wanted a light, clean, very simple page to be a good address for a business card or something of that nature. If I were to attempt commerce I would want to provide a crispy and poignant front, rather than immediately inundating a newbie with my literary missiles.
I used Macromedia Flash (which is famous here on Fridays) to do the main menu interface. I got the idea of the shifting boxes from an example I saw on FFiles.com… and I forget the author but I’ll find out and give him credit.
The new site is painfully simple and pithy, but I’d still be interested in knowing what people think.

Hi Steve! I had fun clicking on the boxes on your new website.
Since I know NOTHING about web design, I thought I would comment on a sentence instead. You wrote: “While I am in various music groups I am always open to opportunities.” Maybe it would be slightly clearer if you preceded “opportunities” with “other”, “more”, or “new”. The sentence took me a second to figure out, and since your intention is to use the site for professional purposes, I thought I’d mention my confusion. Otherwise, I like it! Looking forward to seeing more.
Thanks for checkin’ it out, Michelle. That’s exactly the kind of feedback I need.
I have a bazzilion ideas for version 2.0 of the site (coming sometime before 2007)… it’s just a matter of having 27 hours in a day, that’s all.
boy, shore is purty…he he! Seriously, the clean lines and slight discolorations of the ambiguous quadrilaterals makes my optic nerves twitch all sorts of ways. ( I have no clue what that meant, just trying to be wordy).
man after my own heart (but with a lot more web ability) … seems i want about 100 of my own websites just because i get bored of the one i have
anyway, i like it - if possible, a very faded image within each colored block would look great in my opinion. still “in the background”, but a nice self portrait in each colored block would be cool (obviously, faded enough as not to dominate the text).
Yeah, I plan on making some tweaks here and there to this page. Eventually I’ll probably do a whole new one trying out various new tricks and devices I learn in Flash.
